Tag Editors Apps and Alternatives

Tag editor are applications that enable their users to quickly edit the metadata contained inside multimedia files, without altering the file's content.

The most common usage for taggers is to sort multimedia files, like audio collections, using a batch processing algorithm.

For example, when using a tag editor users will be able to customize the album name, release date and genre for a large number of audio files without having to enter that information for each file at a time.

Nowadays, most ID3 tag editors and audio players enable users to automatically look up CD info from freedb or Gracenote (online databases with track information for millions of CDs).
